"Your Opinion Of Super Nintendo Game And Console Prices Today" That means, as opposed to the past...that's not hard to understand at all. Everyone else seemed to understand just fine and responded as such. No logic needed. Just simple reading comprehension. --- End quote --- With a thumbs down not to mention many complaining about the high prices wich is kinda expected ::) Still though I don't see where you have gotten the idea that some would think prices of lose carts were the same like back than when prices were very cheap. I'm pretty sure little samson wich was already rare back than went for a couple of tenners wich was a huge amount for a single game. |

Also for the more expensive games not much chance there. Only cib seems to go up as far as the past few years go that is. I thought it would be kinda obvious in a topic like this, guess I was wrong ::) |

To be honest, even at most flea markets SNES most games are more the $10. However you might have better luck at Garage Sales and some flea markets or conventions but usually not so much (examples of expensive online stores claiming to be the cheapest way to find SNES games) https://www.dkoldies.com/super-nintendo https://www.lukiegames.com/snes-super-nintendo-video-games.html Probally the cheapest online way for Americans to purchase Super Nintendo games for under $10 https://www.jjgames.com/system/snes/all Heck you can find just about every other system for less especially at flea markets |

If it's less popular prices can be the same or under market value this also applies for more expensive items since stores share the same potential buyers like everyone else in that regard. Only on the cheaper games, very popular franchies and consoles can stores overcharge and get away with it. Those rare fighting games etc will fetch just as much in a store as on ebay since the potential buyer is usually not someone who only uses stores not to mention the market is allot smaller than for the cheaper or very mainstream games. Condition will be the most important thing in that scenario not to mention the availability of the item, store benefits will be non existent to most buyers in this category since most people want the best value and don't care about returns especially carts are pretty sturdy very low risk of one being broken And with discs if the condition is excellent same story kinda BS to pay extra for these people. the kind of people in that category are usually more hardcore collectors who just look everywhere to get a certain game since availablility is not always great. People who don't like to use the black market to much are the bread and butter customers of stores not the people searching through the stores for mispriced stuff or below value etc their losing money when those people are around ;D Most people just buy them for those higher prices even if it's above ebay unless the price is very overpriced or It's something that no one wants. Stores can get premium value so if your looking for good deals stores are not the best spot to look even ebay would be far better especially for mainstream stuff. Oustide mainstream stuff there are most definitely chances even in stores but one should never expect to get the best deals at a store it is a place where the seller could charge and get premium prices not comparable to a flea market at all where one could find bargain deals and buyers expect to go home with the jackpot. |
